Chapter 245: Selecting the Reuters Rotating Rifle
Shua! Swish!
To borrow a famous saying from the outside, with a shovel in hand, the world is mine.
The engineer shovel in Tianheng's hand has a very sharp blade, and it feels like chopping people...
Anyway, the rats he knocked down had no objections at all, and all they could do was lie on the ground waiting for death.
Moreover, what made him overjoyed was that the intelligence of the rats was obviously not as good as that of the sheep-headed people. If you just throw some stones on the ground, they will run around collectively.
No wonder the church has never listed rats as a more dangerous species for thousands of years.
There is no need to kill all the enemies that are easy to deal with.
Otherwise, it will be even more difficult if they become smarter one by one.
And compared to the rats, the sheep-headed people are the ones who are more difficult to deal with and are also the ones that the church is extremely troubled by - they are the focus.
It is said that they took advantage of the fact that most of the intelligent races in the world were controlled and became controlled people with shining eyes, and built their own fortresses in major cities around the world.
As for what they will do, Tianheng doesn't say it, everyone knows it.
So, while the ratmen outside had left a "path" that no one had discovered, Tian Heng naturally hurried forward and came to a high tower with a constantly rotating bracket.
The explosives were installed and the timer was set.
So...
Bang!
The mission of infiltration and blasting was over.
Tian Heng never looked at the explosion and chaos behind him, and immediately got into a nearby building with a sky-blue exterior wall.
No one.
Fortunately, there was no one.
You have to know that he didn't have any comrades driving a car or even a plane to pick him up when he completed the mission.
He had to walk on his own two legs throughout the whole process.
Spells and the like, he couldn't guarantee that the cultists outside didn't have a second detection device to lock him. Once locked, it would be really difficult to escape and it would be difficult to escape danger.
However, he was lucky enough to find a room in the building, which was full of various guns and ammunition.
If I have the ability to take back this pile of weapons and equipment that I don't know which cultist threw it away casually, and I don't know who the original owner is...
Let's try it.
Anyway, there was a six-wheeled truck next to the building, which seemed to be still drivable and had been covered with dust for who knows how long.
In this way, Tian Heng might have been blessed by the so-called blessing, and his luck was not low. He took advantage of the rats outside to run to the explosion site for inspection and successfully moved all the weapons and equipment in the room into the truck.
Then... run!
Fortunately, Tian Heng was a "smart man" who could drive a vehicle, and the truck also cooperated with his performance very well, leaving the dangerous enemy-occupied area at a very fast speed.
Therefore, when he returned to his own territory, he sold his Feiling cavalry rifle, and then got a Reuters rotary sniper rifle that fired 10×63mm caseless rifle bullets and its dedicated optical sight for free.
Yes.
The 10×63mm caseless rifle bullet, the same model as the Krurod Empire, weighed 16 grams of hunting rifle bullets, and the hunters of the Krurod Empire and the former Iron Fist Empire liked to use long-range shooting bullets. Compared with the 7-gram weight, which can only deal with 9×22mm caseless pistol bullets at a distance of 200 meters on the lance at most, the 10×63mm rifle bullet is really useful.
What does it mean?
Even in urban areas, close-range firearms always have an obvious disadvantage - short range. And compared to shooting, observation is the most important thing.
Therefore, the Reuters rotary rifle that Tianheng wants is 990mm long, 650mm long, 5.9kg empty weight without optical sight, 5-round magazine, muzzle velocity 868 meters per second, and effective range 1100 meters.
Although compared with the current mainstream rifles, they have already used automatic loading functions, but he doesn't need to use such high-end things.
Especially when he can't even find a magazine, he simply uses a 5-round magazine to load this Reuters.
At the same time, he also found that the number of the sheep-headed people, the masters of the enemy-occupied areas, is not large. If he can eliminate the sheep-headed people first...
It seems that his next job is this. After all, in the urban environment, it is not too difficult to run away after firing a shot. The key is still one, you have to be familiar with the terrain.
Compared with Tianheng's adventure, Lisen in the Nigan Empire read a novel about an adventure in another world with great contempt, which is said to be very popular and refreshing outside.
Lisen: "Jeanna, does this author have no common sense, or is he just a skeleton wizard? After coming to the other world, it took him half a year to remember that there was no salt in his home, and everything he ate had no taste. Then he called on a group of partners who had not eaten salt for more than three months to dig salt to solve the problem of everyone's tastelessness."
Jeanna: "Uh..."
Lisen: "I said that brainless novels should also have a limit. His protagonist seems to be just an ordinary human who was summoned. With human physique, you can't even get up without salt for two days. The Akitsu Empire in the west is a country that lacks salt. The invasion launched by the pig-headed people of Akitsu is basically to rob salt resources. Otherwise, their modern industry is basically finished, and the people don't even know if they can go out to work."
Jeanna: "This novel was written by the Pig-headed Man in the past. At that time, the Pig-headed Man still admired human culture and did not dare to use force against the human world. Therefore, until now, the Pig-headed Man has always used colorful salt with different colors as aristocratic gifts, presenting it to those upper-class members of extraordinary status."
Li Sen: "So this author is hungry and really needs to try what the consequences will be if he does not eat salt for three days. Half a year? Ha! The brain really needs it... Anyway, salt and sugar, these are the only two things you can't do without for a day unless you are a dead ghost. Especially salt, if you eat less for a day, you will suffer from neurasthenia and general fatigue. Not to mention guns, you can't even carry a hoe."
After scolding the novel, Li Sen looked at the document he had approved on the table.
The content above was about his smuggling of salt.
The Negan Empire is not short of salt, but some areas abroad are very short of salt.
For example, the Akitsu Empire.
However, the Pig-headed Man of the Akitsu Empire has long been hostile to the Negan Empire, and once broke out a crazy plan to turn the Negan Empire into a large brothel.
Therefore, the target of Lisen's smuggling is not the Akitsu Empire, but the humans of the Holy Church.
Although the Holy Church now has a Kapok City as its large base, the Holy Church lacks everything, and even agricultural production can barely guarantee its own food supply. Therefore, there is another lucrative business in the world, the smuggling of salt.
Of course, Lisen actually wants to sell it to the Takagi Kingdom in the north. It's just that the king of the Takagi Kingdom, Takagi Shungo, is too incompetent to rule the country. The violent rule he adopted (using cannons to execute criminals and flogging dissidents at every turn) not only did not make the country peaceful, but on the contrary, his actions caused more resistance from the people.
In particular, King Shungo listed all the rice in the country as tribute goods, and the law prohibiting its consumption in the country made the farmers who witnessed the high yield of rice every year starve for a long time. Over time, the anger of the farmers will burn more and more without receiving much proper education, and finally vent it thoroughly through some violent means.
In addition, as the Akitsu Empire was defeated, the voices of dissatisfaction with the Akitsu Empire in the Takagi Kingdom became more and more severe. Even though King Junwu had personally drawn his sword to kill one disobedient subject after another, the principle of guarding against the mouths of the people is the same. Therefore, in the face of the Akitsu Empire's continued request for salt from the Takagi Kingdom, Nagamasa received more external assistance.
Jeanna: "In fact, have the pig-headed people never thought about relocating the whole country? The Neoland Continent has their colonies."
Lison: "The problem is that the colonies are close to the territory of the Orchid Republic, and the military and civilians of the Orchid Republic are ready to fight against the pig-headed people with cannons and missiles. Even if there is a cat-man kingdom between the two places, what's the use? The cat-man's technological level is not even comparable to that of the primitive states, and they have not even mastered metal forging. The whole country has become a controlled person under the control of the mind-termination device."
